The contact owns a 2010 Ford Escape. While driving 45 mph, the fuel fill inlet and check engine indicators illuminated. The contact stated that she experienced issues with starting the engine and that the starter hesitation began after the vehicle was serviced per an unknown recall regarding the fuel tank. The contact spoke with gene latta Ford Inc (1565 carlisle St, hanover, pa 17331, (717) 633-1999) and informed them of the failures. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified. The failure mileage was 120,000.
The vehicle flex fuel system is horrible and the vehicle shuts off for no apparent reason. We have have had the vehicle inspected and reviewed by mechanics, who come back with one issue, the flex fuel set up. So we ordered and replaced the flex fuel pipe 2 times now. The engine light still continues to pop back on after a couple of days go by. The car shutting off while driving is a safety issue. This vehicle was purchased for my 16 year old daughter from a dealership less than a year ago. I am scared to death she will crash when the vehicle shuts off on the interstate. The 2011 recall Ford issued covered the same type of issue, which in my opinion should be expanded. My daughter just called and stated that the car shut off 5 times in the course of a mile. Luckily, she was local.
When the vehicle comes to a stop whether it be a stop sign or red light, the RPM's over rev higher at the time of leaving from a stop when gas is given to vehicle. After the vehicle gets back up to speed the RPM's drop back to a normal range.
The "check fuel fill inlet" came on a couple of miles after filling gas and stayed on. After a few more miles, the engine light came on and stayed on ever since. I have had the same problem 4 months ago, but my mechanic said it is a malfunction in the computer so we replaced the computer. But the problem came back. I have looked online for solutions and it seems many other Ford Escape users have had the same problem.
I purchased the vehicle just under 2 years ago ongoing issues the car will stall out/die while driving ac/heat causes issues I have had a ton of work done and the issues are reoccurring while diving on city street it has stalled out as well as in park. The cause of the issue is unknown

This happened 5 times during this period, but has also happened several times since December 2017 as well.
